Further, some students that started at theinitiation of the BS MCET program at the author's home institution in 2019 graduated by the Fall2022 term. One such academically talented student that began at the program's initiation andlater chose to become a student worker for the department has detailed her experience with theprogram to present as a coauthor of this work.Further ContextAs a result of defense restructuring in 2014 and 2015, Fort Campbell military base was requiredto cease operations of two of its major divisions [1], [2]. This reduction in personnel removedapproximately 5,800 soldiers from the base, spurring plans to create organizations

Aware of this trend, the department of Nuclear Engineering has included within itsstrategic plan the offering of a fusion engineering track.One of the first steps towards achieving this is the curricular design of a course aimed as anoverview of the many engineering aspects of magnetic nuclear fusion systems. Topics such asfusion power calculations, plant energy balance, magnetostatic calculations, microwaveengineering, neutronics and plasma-material interactions are introduced to the students. Topromote student engagement, the course was developed on a highly engaging online platform(TopHat), and the course included experiences aimed at connecting the knowledge gained in classwith real systems.

The purpose of thisconnection was to teach the students how to build team dynamics through planning andexecuting a project.While the regular project allowed the students to propose a solution based mainly on functionalassessment, the EM project asked them to consider technical feasibility, customer value andeconomic viability as well. In the process of searching for technical feasibility, the studentslearned how to integrate information from many sources to gain insight. In this project, it wasshown that a carefully designed strut composed of elastic elements can provide the needed springaction (Solid Mechanics connection), and an actuator with a proper orifice can provide adequatedissipation of energy (Fluid Mechanics connection

The girl is confined to her chair, is nonverbal, and struggles withfine motor skills. The team visited the girl and had an opportunity to interview her mother andnurse. Both expressed a desire for the girl to be able to independently control her own music ei-ther through her TV or Alexa.The team brainstormed ideas and developed an ambitious design plan (see Figure 5a) that in-volved a control unit with large assistive buttons connected to a micro-controller based MP3player and speaker that can give eight distinct

The framework mimics what occurs in a consulting office, with a focus on helping studentsbecome proficient in what structural engineers use 80% of the time. Rooted in project-basedlearning, students utilize ASCE 7 to calculate loads, and the associated material codes to designbeams, columns, frames, walls, footings, and connections. They utilize structural engineeringsoftware for in-depth analysis and CAD software to prepare framing plans, elevations, and details.Students who are experiencing this framework are preparing a work product on-par with newpracticing engineers.1
